Hi Cariis!

Just read back. Good to know you're okay.

I just googled to see where my 88 year old uncle lives near Panacea. He's on a canal near Mashes Sands Beach and Ochlockonee Pt. That looks very exposed. I hope I can get hold of him in the morning. Better yet, I hope he evacuated.

Meanwhile, about 18,000 acres are burning just over the CA line.

Oh no! Saw maps on the news of the swirling areas in so many parts of Florida. Jacksonville looked like it's being hit hard, then up towards Panama City, then up into lots of the southern states. All that rain! Can't even imagine 80 miles an hour winds. Worried for everybody. :candle:

I have friends in Clearwater Beach area. Anyone know how that area is ?

My grandmother has a home on a canal in Hernando Beach. Luckily she is out of state at the moment, however her husband is still at the home. Yesterday je said tje water came almost to tje top of their seawall but je expected it to go down overnight. I fear he was wrong, I woke a little while ago and decoded to watch TWC special love coverage while starting my day and they have reported there were some boat rescues in that area. My family members home is a stilt home but even so... it could be a very dangerous situation, especially for the elderly. If it were not so early in the AM I would call to check on him.

This storm is pretty nasty.

Hi Everyone,
Reporting in. So far I'm good. Only lost electricity for a few minutes, but right now we're in another squall band. Trees damaged homes within a mile of me, but I've been very lucky so far.

Missed this party, I see. I was sleeping all night. We didn’t lose power, so I turned on our fans and ‘white noise’ machine to help sleep through the storm noise of wind and rain. Slept soundly!
Spellbound, I live near Clearwater Beach, but not ON the beach.
Florida native here, so lots of hurricane history. We prepare and then ride it out. CAT 1 is an easy ride.
We had lots and lots of rain for 2 days from feeder bands. Our yard is completely soaked and looks like a river in some low parts of the yard. It should dry out within a few days or a week.
Grew up with hurricanes, and yes CARIIS… it was fun times.
